Twins : Different Dads

[4jazzyLadys]

Is it possible for fraternal twins to have different  fathers

[thirdandlastbaby]

Yes sperm lives for five days but after the egg is fertilized it releases a chemical that kills other sperm cells. That's why I said 24-48 hrs

^^ lol I hope so for her sake. Imagine how hard that would be to explain to People. That's a pill I wouldn't want to swallow. Imagine her poor clueless bf. Lol but it probably is genetics with them. Just crazy because they have one white & one black and they look nothing alike.

i know a couple who have twins and one is white and one is black, both parents are white bt they said in the fathers family every couple generations a black baby is born lol so maybe theyre just different colors.

I actually know a girl who has twin boys. One is really light & one is dark.  My friend is mixed, & her boyfriend is white, but she had been sleeping with another guy on the low who was black & pretty dark. I would NEVER EVER ask her because that's just rude lol but I wonder if this may be the case for her.  Her BF knows nothing about the other guy so im assuming he just thinks it's genetics.. which it could be, just saying!!! I KNOW I'm not the first one to wonder about it. Especially knowing she had another dude on the side.

It isn't as rare as people think, and you do not need to have two uterus' for it to happen.  Your body simply releases a set of eggs & the sperm of one man fertilizes one egg, & another man the other egg. Sperm lives up to 5 days so if you sleep with two men within that window of time it is a possibility. (Heteropaternal Superfecundation) is the actual name for it. & like I said, it happens more often then we think.

Yes but you have to have sex with the dads within 24-48 hr's of each other and you have to ovulate 2 eggs. It is EXTREMELY rare and there have only been a handful of women that have done it. On of the most recent cases was a prostitute but I don't remember her name or anything.... it was a couple years ago.
